Man, it's disturbing to hear the liberals support this plan.
I understand that they hated Bush. The election should have been a step in the proper direction.
Instead, all we get is kneejerk packages FORCED down our throat.
Senators want to actually read the bill before voting?? That's blasphemy!
It must be signed NOW.
(And never you mind that Obama then waited four days to actually sign it)
Conservatives question the concept of adding a trillion dollars to our bulging deficit?
How dare they!
The chosen one has clearly stated that the government has to fix all problems. That he won't even LISTEN to opposing viewpoints. That something has to be NOW even if it means doing the WRONG thing now.
I'm a conservative. I vote republican with only a few exceptions (usually at the local level).
But I was PROUD to be American when Obama took his oath of office.
I was EXCITED for a new optimism, new hope and a fresh perspective.
Instead, all we get is doom and gloom. The stock market tanks every time obama opens his mouth. We're given a pork laden spending bill with a feel-good "stimulus" title and the libs eat it up. They think it will actually stimulate the economy even though NOBODY has explained how.
I don't have all the answers, but that doesn't mean that I can't recognize a dangerous precendent when I see it.
Social programs may "be needed" if the economy continues to falter, but show me ONE TIME when a social program was eventually eliminated.
Once people suck of the sweet nectar of uncle sams teets, they'll NEVER go back.
Bush didn't cause the economy to fail. But neither did he prevent it, and for that I lay a fair shame of the blame on his shoulders.
But a bad economy WILL recover, even on it's own without government involvement.
And it WILL recover even with Obama's plan in place.
But after it recovers, we'll now be saddled with the additional deficit and the burden of never ending social programs.
How stimulating is that?
